[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1230570, member: 46727"] If you use SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to duplicate a drive, I believe it will overwrite what data is on the drive you're cloning to. I don't know if SuperDuper has an option to do a limited clone to a specified partition as I use Carbon Copy Cloner to do my clone backups. I know that CCC will overwrite the entire drive. I still think the best and safest method for you to use is to buy a large external hard drive and use it to do the copying and later on, backups. [/QUOTE]
